• Bake for about 20 minutes until fish is cooked through and the crumbs are nicely browned.

BROILED SCROD WITH LEMON BUTTER

Steps:

• Thaw fish fillets, if frozen. Place in a single layer on greased rack of an unheated broiler pan. Tuck under any thin edges to make even thickness. Combine butter and lemon juice and brush over fillets. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil fish 4 inches from the heat for 10 to 12 minutes or just until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, brushing occasionally with lemon-butter mixture. Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges. If desired, top with buttered bread crumbs near the end to brown and crisp.

BOSTON BAKED SCROD

• Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 20 minutes, or until fish flakes but is still moist.
• Remove the pan from the oven and preheat the broiler. Scatter the bread crumbs over the fish, and drizzle with the remaining 1/4 cup of melted butter.
• Brown under the broiler for 2 to 5 minutes only, just until lightly browned, and serve.

BROILED COD WITH LEMON BUTTER GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler on the oven. Pat the cod with a paper towel, then season both sides with the salt and pepper.
• Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a cast iron or oven-proof skillet that is no bigger than 12 inches. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds, then stir in the lemon juice and zest.
• Place the cod fillets in the pan and cook for 1 minute, then carefully turn them over.
• Place the skillet in the oven about 4-6 inches from the broiler. Broil for 6-9 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fillets, or until the internal temperature of the cod reaches 130-140°F on a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the thickest portion of a fillet.
• Garnish with the parsley and extra lemon slices, if desired, and serve.
